<\/a><\/span>As I write this,we are sitting on a mooring in West harbor on Fisher’s Island. \u00a0We left Deep River as planned at noon today and covered 34 miles against the tide in excellent time. \u00a0Arriving at Fisher’s at 16:00 we covered the distance at about 8 knots with a fresh SW breeze that topped out at some 20 knots as the afternoon wore on. \u00a0I always find myself exhausted the first night aboard as getting ready for a few days aboard takes about as much effort as getting ready to spend months cruising.<\/span><\/p>\n
